Axar Patel to Shirai-Patmore, 1 run
It won’t happen for Japan today. They came quite close, they could almost taste the W, but India have somehow squeaked through in this final over! Both players can smile again, but it got so tense out there, especially in the final over. Iyer leads the way with handshakes, and Japan’s batters throw their heads back, they knew they could have snuck in maybe cricket’s biggest upset here. Anyway, the ball itself: batter looked to swivel across the line once again, but the ball thudded into his pads and ran down to fine leg, and they could only take a single to finish off the innings
